Ukrainian refugees in Ireland - Megathread

I've not mentioned welfare Trains, there is of course issues with our welfare system generally but that's for another discussion.

So why add more to the gravy train then? Utterly idiotic

Technically the Ukrainians are entitled to it as it is being offered to them. No point blaming the Ukrainians for any of this, the issues are due to government negligence again. Remember, come the winter there well could be another surge of migration into Europe. We will have to take them in also and the Ukrainians will be forgotten about.

Another large wave is almost guaranteed in the next year or so, so we will see.

It’s fairly simple- you rigidly guard your borders and expel all economic illegals back to where they came from (well, keep them out in the first place of course). This is going to become the No 1 issue in Europe this decade- population around Africa and Middle East is growing rapidly with useless governance, rampant corruption and inability and unwillingness to develop- the easier option is jump on the European gravy train. The numbers aren’t manageable into the future so something will have to give

Would those be the facts I and a number of others gave 🤔, would they be the facts two TD'S took the time to ask questions of Ministers, would they be the facts I discussed in my home with an elected member of the Dail (someone I've never met before or voted for)

I submitted numerous Questions and some facts.

I don't believe I'm alone and wether you can accept it or not, not every community is content to stand idly by and accept this virtue signalling nonsense or have two fingers stuck up at them by this government.

Well they have packets of disposal income and Eastern Europeans love Penneys- so why wouldn’t they!

TDs ignore the issue, don't respond to constituents on the issue.

TDs and political parties are playing a game…

they know XX% won’t be returning. A significant number. More will arrive…

so they are canvassing for those votes… NOW

” ohhh remember X party or X politicians helped us and we’re on our side “

if Labour, a party already on its arse, only 7 TDs was to be seen even questioning it… liberals, wokies, will leave their side in droves.

There’s going to be WW3 if and when these units are built and Irish working people that can’t afford their own place or paying extortionate rents see it happening in front of their eyes

You are right of course- there is a large cohort that can’t or won’t join the dots

Common people don't live the lives of Irish leaders. Though they sound Irish, they live in a world of big salaries and elite society. Surely people would have figured out they weren't that smart after the 2008 crisis? If things go wrong again, a country that grows its debt from 50 billion to 250 billion is in big trouble. Getting these refugees off the social security benefits and into work is good. At least they'll be earning something and making lives for themselves in their own way.

 quote For every 1,000 refugees who will be accommodated by the State in a hotel, it’ll cost about €33 million per year.” 

Living space, that's all

It's gonna be a lot of money in the long run. I think a Ukrainian would get off his ass and work unlike some of the Irish who have been collecting dole for decades. People who avoid work like the plague annoy me. Someone who gets up early and comes home late should not be paying for someone who doesn't work? Some people have medical problems and others are unable to find employment for legitimate reasons, but others are having a laugh.   You're all right looking after your own as long as you give back. Unemployed people who smoke fags on the street all day are doing anything to improve themselves. Offer freebies now, but make sure they'll give something back later. 

We can run to Ukraine... I'm sure Zelenskyy and the boys will help us out, after all isisn't he meeholios newest best friend..
